Remember to guard your privacy and abide by our community guidelines. PuzzL ​hello Coffee House Philosopher ​hey xah Vice Q ​hello Coffee House Philosopher ​nice talking to you on discord yesterday Oflameo ​It sounds like my Logitech K845 I just bought last week. Oflameo ​Why do I want a keyboard with internal memory? Coffee House Philosopher ​program macros Coffee House Philosopher ​but that depends on what you prefer. I have enough on my shopping list so no fancy keyboard for me 😂 Oflameo ​I am using MX Linux. It can hold and execute macros just fine. The M stands for MEPIS, but it could stand for Macro too. Coffee House Philosopher ​lol Coffee House Philosopher ​rgb is dumb ... I only need a back light for working in the dark Oflameo ​What macros work properly between differently computers? Coffee House Philosopher ​I'm not a mechanical keyboard junkie Oflameo $10.00 You can have some money, now. Coffee House Philosopher ​looks like the old IBM keyboard Oflameo ​My Logitech K845 is a shine through keyboard. Coffee House Philosopher ​nvm it's an old Macintosh.. Oflameo ​I'll copy my question in from the Discord. Oflameo ​Is there a simple word to refer to both software developers and system administrators? Oflameo ​Lay people would call them both programmers, but the jargon has got so bad that that would be technically wrong. We could call them devoperators, but that isn't a term anyone really uses. Jorman Molina ​[message retracted] Coffee House Philosopher ​this was in discord... lay people don't even know the term sysadmin 😂 Oflameo ​I use a Fosmon Mini Bluetooth Keyboard as my bluetoooth keyboard. I can fit it into a case with a slate smartphone. Oflameo ​@Coffee House Philosopher the major problem is that HR people are also lay people, and so are a lot of potential clients. Oflameo ​Tech people aren't lay people, but are obsessed with dumb jargon. Coffee House Philosopher ​never learned DVORAK layout. Coffee House Philosopher ​@xahlee I'm a linux/unix , FOSS fanboy lol Oflameo ​I am no fanboy anymore, I just dislike the other OS's more. Oflameo ​Who am I kidding. I am a fanboy when it works. Coffee House Philosopher ​some of that jargon is necessary... but it can be to cumbersome when there's no industry standard Oflameo ​I agree. Jorman Molina ​I was simulating a grid 100x100 equations generated with Array it took 12 minutes and 11 GB of ram, now I am aware that using SparceArray is so much faster and uses few memory. why is that? wolfram Oflameo ​We regularly need to define things into existence, just to think about them. Oflameo ​Hopefully Ruliology can explain the Lisp curse. I am also hoping for a Common Lisp, Persix rant. I may write one myself tbh. Jack T ​I'm writing a Powershell major mode for Emacs, and it's all thanks to your info on your website, and videos. So far I've made also made a powershell-eval-line/region. Coffee House Philosopher ​yeah, your website is my new reference Oflameo ​Your website is one of my references too. It is even book marked. Oflameo ​You are right, remaps don't work properly. I was thinking about import execution. Oflameo ​I mean input execution. Coffee House Philosopher ​never buy Microsoft.. 😋🤣😏 Coffee House Philosopher ​elisp Coffee House Philosopher ​🤗🤗🤗 Oflameo ​There is an abomination I want to make, Land Of Lisp in Emacs Lisp. Aryan Pandey ​emacs is very easy to learn and master. Coffee House Philosopher ​not to the normies Oflameo ​Not for me either. I always preferred vim until I discovered evil mode and Doom Emacs. Sane defaults go a long way. Coffee House Philosopher ​@aryan pandey I've tried to get ppl to use linux and other FOSS software but they cry too much Oflameo ​The menu in the default system were okay, but it wasn't as easy to use as just using kwrite or gedit. Oflameo ​I used to try to get people to use Linux and FOSS, but I fell out of love with the FSF FOSS religion because it didn't actually help me accomplish my synthetic goals. Oflameo ​What use is being free if I didn't have the power to accomplish my controls or have useful control over my computers? Aryan Pandey ​l have learn emacs with in 2 days. It is very easy becz it is self-documented text editor. Coffee House Philosopher ​FSF just needs to evolve... It can go to the next level once it does. Coffee House Philosopher ​@aryan pandey that's because you're passionate.. not many ppl can be bothered. they just want to use the gui Oflameo ​Maybe we should just treat the FSF like a GNU project and fork it. GNU projects evolve quickly when there is a fork from the same codebase. Examples, EGCS, Eglibc. Coffee House Philosopher ​sure, stallman might've started it but it will not end with him Oflameo ​There is a hole in their "respect your freedom" certification caused by their reliance on an Open Group style pay for notoriety style directory. That means importing things like Arduinos get left out. Oflameo ​Set the terminal to interpret the color properly and output it. MLGpachino MLGpachino ​xah, would you support to modernize the emacs defaults? MLGpachino MLGpachino ​also, will emacs ever be multithreaded, today I tried to copy a 50mb file in dired to another pc and it hung emacs for a long time Oflameo ​What type of file? Oflameo ​Windows screwed up? You don't say. This message is held for review.
